Publisher's black cloth, spines and fronts stamped in blue, silver, and purple; all text block edges trimmed; original dust jackets. Both bindings with some faint specks of pale soiling scattered across cloth; dust-soiling along top edges. One copy with previous owner signature, one with book label, at front free endpaper; one with minor soiling at front free endpaper; one with a hint of age discoloration along hinges. Text blocks softly dulled; one copy a bit more soiled at text block edges. Edge wear to jackets resulting in nicking at spine and flap fold ends; general mild rubbing; light wear along folds; adhesive residue at front flap of one copy; one jacket rather yellowed at verso.
